Vinyl Sidings vs Hardboard siding

[Moises B.]

Hi,

I'm surveying properties and being this would be my first attempt to purchase, wondering if I'm just being paranoid in investing in a property that has hardboard siding vs vinyl siding - does it matter?? I'm probably the most frugal person in human history, and as I read the pros and cons between the two, I unfortunately come to the conclusion they're both bad. 

Hardboard can be expensive if you're flipping, vinyl while inexpensive has a slew of chemicals and OSHA implications.

If anyone has any recommendations, I'd appreciated.

Also, if anyone needs assistance with project planning on flips, I'm open to lend a hand. I'm a certified PMP, albeit, not in construction, can map out a plan that fits your needs so that all areas of your flip or upgrades are covered...just here to help and network.

Thank you!!
